@reverse - Use these for each field

| rex field=_raw "\*{0,10}Browser\s+information{0,20} - \*{0,20}(?<browser>.*) \(" | rex field=_raw "Session ID is \*{2} - (?<session>\S+)" | rex field=_raw "User ID \*{1,10}(?<user>\S+)\*{2}"

@reverse try the rex from the following run anywhere example | rex "Browser\sinformation\s\-\s\*+(?<BrowserInfo>[^\s]+).*Session ID is \*+\s\-\s(?<SessionID>[^\*]+)\*+\sUser\sID\s\*+(?<UserID>[^\*]+)\*+"
